O.K.-- Her' goes again. I'd really like to get on the bandwagon. I'd really like to 'drink the coolaid' and say that a completely protean library is the best thing for our (what, 'users' , or patrons, or 1980's 'customers' ) but I really don't think so. Does this blackball me? Am I alone? No. There are all of the others who would have come to the library who won't....just because of this (somewhat offputting to anyone born after 1975) technology. Where is the :book: in all of this?? Don't give me the 'we're saving trees' crud.....use of the library before computers compared to now has demonstrably increased the felling of trees. The coal industry alone should kiss all the libraries' asses for the WASTEFUL technology herein touted. End of rant.

I remain yours,

forever anti-this
